John Ellis Heroes Quintet

Description

Every piece begins with someone unforgettable. In Heroes, saxophonist and multi-reedist John Ellis turns the people who shape our lives, from mentors and legends to friends and family, into a set of deeply personal original compositions. Brought to life by a group of longtime collaborators and deeply expressive voices, each work unfolds like a vivid portrait in sound, rich with warmth, character, and emotional depth. Thoughtful yet full of momentum, this is the kind of performance that draws you into the stories behind the music and keeps you there.
